Might reconsider it. Such sweet man-to-camera love going on....
Still resisting an Iskra purchase?

Hither, I'm having a great time with my Iskra 2, what a fun camera! Just wish I had a way to print the negs and wish the stupid frames wouldn't overlap 🙁
Yes, I've tried winding slowly, no workski

I scan 120 negs on my Canoscan 8400f that I got reconditioned for $85 from Newegg and print on my HP 7960 that I got slightly used from Amazon for $110. You can do it.

Hello,
I just did a "quick and dirty" comparison of my Iskra-2 with my Weltax (3,5/75 CZJ Tessar). At f/8 the Iskra is still a bit soft in the corners, not so the Tessar. And you can get a Weltax for under 20 Euro in Germany.
OK - the Weltax is missing the Selenium Meter and the Rangefinder - but you won't have any frame spacing problems, unless you are able to count numbers in the little Window at the back ;-)
Regards,
Andreas

Agh! Yes, it's been hard to resist. Great pictures by the way. It feels very lighthearted and warm at the same time.
